Ingredients

1 1/2 cups Thai sticky (glutinous) rice, soaked 4 hours and drained
1 (14 oz) can full-fat coconut milk
1/3 cup granulated sugar
1/2 tsp salt
4 tsp cannabis-infused coconut oil (~5mg THC per tsp)
2 ripe Ataulfo mangoes, peeled and sliced
2 tbsp toasted sesame seeds or crisped mung beans
Banana leaf, for plating (optional)

How to make it

1
Steam soaked rice in a bamboo steamer or fine-mesh strainer over simmering water for 25 minutes until tender and translucent.
2
While rice steams, gently warm coconut milk with sugar and salt until just dissolved (do not boil).
3
Reserve 1/3 of the coconut sauce for drizzling. Pour the rest over the hot rice and let it absorb 10 minutes.
4
Cool the reserved drizzle to lukewarm, then whisk in cannabis-infused coconut oil for even dosing.
5
Plate rice, fan mango slices alongside, and finish with the infused coconut drizzle and sesame seeds.

Cooking tips

Eating mango with a myrcene-rich indica is a classic pairing—mango itself is myrcene-rich.
Adding the infused oil to lukewarm cream keeps the dose stable.
For best results, use ripe Ataulfo or Champagne mangoes—their sugar level is unmatched.

Why this pairing works

Myrcene — in your strain and on your plate

Myrcene is the most common terpene in cannabis and the engine behind many indica-style sedating effects. Earthy and herbaceous, it loves rich, slow-cooked, comforting foods.
